Congratulations Joyce! What an honor.

Streater named top county clerk in Texas

-

Comal County Clerk Joy Streater was named the best county clerk in the state of Texas this week.

The County and District Clerks Association of Texas voted the longtime county employee as County Clerk of the Year Wednesday.

“It’s very humbling,” Streater said, after being honored by her peers at the association’s annual conference in South Padre Island. “Out of 254 counties, to be named the clerk of the year for 2009 is very special.”

A reception was held to honor Streater Friday morning in the Comal County Courthouse Annex, with dozens of people turning out to welcome the newly awarded county clerk.

“I’ve worked with Joy for 10 and a half years and I’ve always been impressed with her level of professionalism,” said Comal County Commissioner Jay Millikin. “I think (the award) is a wonderful accolade for someone that’s been at this level government as long as she has.”

Streater has served as Comal County Clerk since 1993.

“She’s been an excellent county clerk for all the years I’ve known her,” said Comal County Judge Danny Scheel. “What makes me so proud is that 254 other counties in the state of Texas don’t have a county clerk as good as Comal County’s.”
